G3SG1 | Contractor (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

This is the most worn version of the tan, navy and dark green G3SG1 | Contractor. Paint is heavily chipped across edges and raised parts, while the larger flat areas still keep their colour. The skin's range stops before the extreme end, so the colour scheme remains recognisable.

Item type: sniper rifle. The weapon is available only on the Terrorist side. Consumer Grade is the lowest tier of the rarity scale: the most common skins, most often used in trade-up contracts.

Solid Color: a single colour without a pattern; wear dulls it evenly and rubs it off along the edges.

The remaining qualities of this skin: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested and Well-Worn.

Appearance in Battle-Scarred

The upper receiver, handguard and scope are painted dark green, while the barrel, muzzle and magazine stay in darker grey-navy tones. The stock, pistol grip, charging handle and scope mount are covered in a matte tan, giving the rear of the rifle a light accent.

Heavy chipping covers the muzzle, barrel, edges of the receiver and handguard, the scope and the grip. The tan stock shows large worn areas around its edges and the magazine is scuffed at its corners. In game the colour blocks are still readable but look rough and patchy. The skin's range ends before maximum wear, so the broad flat surfaces keep some paint.

What to check before buying

• Check the float position within the wear grade, since the muzzle, handguard edges and grip show the difference first.
• Look at the tan stock and grip in the inspect view, because wear is most visible on the lighter colour.
• Note whether the copy is a Souvenir, as such versions may carry pre-applied stickers.
• Check applied stickers and the name tag, since they change the look of a plain solid-colour finish.
